Answer:

I'm pretty sure it would be $131.56

Explanation:

I think it will be $131.56 because if you take an multiply the 2.99 times 88 the number of muffins that were sold that day, then you would get $263.12. If you donated 1/2 of the profits made, then you would take 263.12 and divide it by 2 because half of it would be divided by 2. So therefore you would get $131.56! Hope this helps!

Correct me if I'm wrong!
